Mechanical baroreceptor stimulation may modulate cortical activity; leaves open relevance to BP regulation or cognitive outcomes.
Does mechanical baroreceptor stimulation alter cortical activity in human subjects?
Mechanical baroreceptor stimulation alters cortical activity, supporting a physiological link between blood pressure regulation and higher cortical function.
Rau et al. (1993) studied this question.
